SmackDown was bumped to the cable channel wasn’t it?

Yes, it aired on FS1. It also drew ~70k more than the last time it was bumped off Fox for the World Series (as seen in the below link)

SMACKDOWN AUDIENCE, DEMO DOWN; LOWEST AUDIENCE SINCE USA NETWORK MOVE | PWInsider.com

3rd hour of raw got 1.2mil. They really need to stop with the terrible womens main events.

WWE Network moving to Binge, does that mean Foxtel subscribers will have access?

I noticed a lot of the Network originals were available on demand on Foxtel, but couldn’t find Classic episodes of Raw, SmackDown, Nitro etc, and the PPV’s.

Not sure what Binge has.

Over exposure of women’s matches, particularly in the 3rd hour main event

Lack of Roman Reigns and the main titles on RAW (Still can’t believe they ticked off a part time contract for Reigns)

Disappointingly, they are clearly in a treading water phase with no PLE’s until late January with the Rumble.

The 3rd hour seems to be a bit of a throwaway these days. They rarely seem to tease or build a story from the opening segment to the end of show main event like they did in the 2 hour RAW days.

The 3rd hour is still probably more viewers than anything else USA Network could put in that spot I guess.

Got no problem with Roman having a part time contract, my problem is them putting the title on a part time guy.

SmackDown: 2,376,000

Pretty solid for a taped show

I wonder what AEW would do if they didn't have the Big Bang Theory before Dynamite as a lead in.

I think a lot of that would be people/fans tuning in to watch Mark Briscoe, pay tribute to Jay. Which makes WBD decision in banning a tribute to Jay last week even more puzzling. Fortunately the Briscoe’s ban seems to be lifted, so here’s hoping to see more of Mark on Dynamite until ROH get a tv deal.

So they’re number 3 now based on tv metrics?

Women of Wrestling (WOW) on CBS

[The Casey Cat]

Much better. But must be said no NBA competition.

 

[RossFC]

NBA was a lead in for Rampage on Friday, the first few mins had 1.4mil watching Aussie Open vs Best Friends.

The rating ended up being 639k, the best rating since September 2021 (Which had CM Punk's first TV match in AEW).

 

[RossFC]

Impact with 133k, the highest rating they've had since March 2022.

 

[ULTIMATE_WARRIOR]

Some big numbers for SmackDown.

For the first time in a long time, some consistent year on year growth in terms of TV Audience
